We’ve been working, living, and traveling on sailboats in different parts of the world for 10 years now and we recently arrived at D-Marin Turgutreis after an amazing season Exploring the Mediterranean. We’ve attempted to document our entire journey through our weekly videos but those weekly videos don’t do a great job of telling the story from a big picture perspective. So this will be the first episode of what we’re calling our Recap series, where we’ll tell the story of our entire journey from the very beginning over the course of 4 episodes. We hope you enjoy it.

It still cost money to sail the seven seas plus the fact things go wrong the cost to repair things,and a sailor needs to have a good amount of knowledge to do his own repairs more so when out at sea then he really should have some knowledge about sailing ,its not the question of ive bought a boat no i cant do repairs no i have no idea how to navigate nor anything else.
my name is atticus
That was a heck of a lot better than I expected. Far too often recaps are mostly about self indulgence.
This was realistic, believable and sometimes brutally honest. It was well done.
Jmjjìkkp
Agreed. My first video and they have gained a subscriber.
I do aleady like the tone of the regular episodes (besides having only watched the Greece season yet) because i find them to be a somewhat unique komposition of indulging scenery and crusing adventure which appear to levitate about an ocean of the big questions in life like clouds on a flight above the sea. Wether it's some facts on the location and it's history about, the (maybe all too idealistic) small harbour town life, or the graduated from Athen who chose to become local farmer to live a purposeful life that his father tried to escape from (two epsioded ago) reveal the aspiration to understand what life is about.
Granted, for some people it's just the emotional or sensational experience - and i don't know if that is better or takes away anything. It just seems fact that some have to be able to reflect beauty, or luck, or the idea of living a purposful life against the harshenes, the bad and the ugly in order to truly experience it. What is good life? What does it take and what is it made up with? Why is the desireable of one the adverse in the eye of the other?
When Jordan said that he had felt unhappy about his percieved ability to judge the level his boatbuilding skills then this is the best -albeit metaphoric- essence what makes this entire channel so special. Cusing life can probably be seen as a quest. This episode reveals (probably one of) the driving forces behind this quest.
I am 74 years young. At my stage of life I often look back on the life decisions I have made. An important part of life is learning and it continues today. The energy and enthusiasm of youth is great and it is important to keep that enthusiasm for LIFE going. For all of it's issues Atticus was a great place to learn. I have always loved the look of a Ketch. Keep learning and enjoy the adventure and do not let life make you old.
Having watched all your videos, this one is your best by far. Arrogance is talent without experience. Talent, humble desire, vulnerability and hard work is the foundation of success for anything. It's amazing for me to watch you both grow as humans leading by example on how to be good humans. I wish more humans followed the life pearls of wisdom you are sharing. Don't get me wrong - I love the weekly adventures, but this is next level. And it's your fault that I bought a Shannon which I love. Thank you for your gifts to all of us.
Profound. Poetic. Exactly what I needed to see and hear as we approach 1.5 years refitting our boat. I have been having trouble understanding and coming to grips with my highs and lows, distinguishing misfortunes and miracles. Jordan’s narration just keeps getting better and better!
Hang in there!!
Hey Guys ..I am 67 years old and have been sailing almost 40 years and just now looking at taking off for a few years to explore another 45 countries. I have to tell you that I watched your story and it was very inspirational and well done ..and I think you for that...Keep up the good work.
Long time subscriber but first time I feel compelled to thank you in writing for sharing your journey and hard fought words of wisdom. “Desperation is truly the mother of invention “. Having been there before and having learned the same lesson that “if you are willing to do anything and if you are humble doors will open” I want to thank you for this recap series. I’ve shared this episode with my 20 something kids. Here’s to having the courage to get yourself into those desperate situations in the first place.
Jordan and Desiree, I have been following your journey, now, for years. I believe I started watching just as you were about to leave Isla Mujeres. At that time I went back and watched all of your videos up to that point and have watched every episode since. Jordan, you are a natural storyteller and narrator. But this is next-level stuff. Absolutely your best work. It is a real skill that you have. You can pull your audience into your experiences with ease, or so it seems. And to have lain bare before us your entire life story, ups and downs, joys and disappointments, exhilarations, and desperations, since starting your adventures on Atticus, is a real gift to your audience. I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this gift. It brought real tears to my eyes. Loved it. Though having never met the two of you, I feel like I really do know you guys. God Bless both of you and your daughter.
Your daughter is such an absolute darling. Congrats on managing a very demanding situation so well. She is just gorgeous.
So excited for this series, it made me realize I've been watching for 4 years now. Woah.
Your story is amazing, and I hope you truly realize how proud you should be. You’ve learned and grown the hard, yet right way. There’s literally nothing you can’t do.
Jordan, I remember drawing and painting most of my life. Then one day my granddaughter came into the art studio and said “wow nana you are a real artist. And I believed her. You two are sailing experts at your own journey. And remember to always remind your of that. Life is learning , you don’t stop because you’re an expert. I have watched you two grow up and become amazing friends, partners and parents. Thank you for all the hard work you put in your videos!
🥰🤗
Best sailing video I've ever watched. Absolutely brilliant.
*Now I understand why I LOVE listening to you Jordan and how you've evolved into such a beautiful wise soul.*
Great to see a video about rehabbing a boat from a realistic perspective. Too many of these type videos dedicate about 2 minutes to the process of going from $5000 purchase to cruise ready boat. I learned, on a much smaller boat thankfully, when I was much younger that the old advice about buying a boat "if you can't afford a nice one, you sure can't afford to fix one up" was very true.
I found you on TH-cam during the late phase of Atticus 1 and didn’t miss an episode since then. But your idea of summarizing your journey of sailing life from todays perspective is excellent. I got really emotional more than once. You grew as persons, as a couple, as sailing experts and finally as parents. Life’s a roller coaster, if one door is shut down, other doors open. But you need the patience, the eyes to see these new doors and the confidence to walk through. You are doing great. Can’t wait seeing the other three recaps.
Thank you!
Last year my wife and I moved from Petersburg Alaska to Juneau Alaska purchasing a house that needed a lot of fixing up and remodeling. I have to admit I have hit that wall, the point you just want it over so you can move on. Thanks for the reminder that we all occasionally want the future more than the present. Dreams take time and work, and tomorrow isn’t necessarily any better than today. Love watching your stories of inspiration!!!!
Hang in there!!! Thanks for watching!
I dont know about anyone else but I mark 55 years this march and looking back my life has pretty much been one long refit... without it there is no growth!
A humble personality goes a long way. I think what has worked for your guys is the fact that you guys seem to be born to each other. And a big part of adventures like these is if both parties are 100% into it.
I have watched your channel, since that video when you guys went to see Atticus I at that anchorage, all the way to this date. I know the feeling. I myself have been refitting a 35' boat which it has been on the hard for over 5 years, and working part time, 90% alone, as I'm still in the workforce, hoping to retire in late 2024. I also know the feeling of watching boats come and go from the boatyard, and my boat it still there. When my engine, a Yanmar 3GMF, seized up from not being used, I pulled it out in piecdes, took it home and rebult it myself, staring it up eight months later on my driveway, and now ready to go back in. I have come to a lot of similar reaizations. So, hang in there, it will happen. Your daughter will grow up and help with the chores. I think Atticus II is a reward for the hard work you guys put in. Looking forward to the next three videos and to watch the memories. Fair winds.
That's so awesome that you were able to rebuild your Yanmar! Way to go!
Loved this recap Jordan. Looking forward to the next 3 episodes
Enjoy watching y'all life change. It's been quite a cool ride...
'You get out of life what you put in' - right there. x
I smile through all your videos. As someone fixing up a project boat, it's given me motivation to keep going.
I first started watching your videos when you left Mexico. This recap of the first chapters of your sailing adventure was just wonderful and reflection truly does make you appreciate the journey you have had through life. A truly wonderful episode and I am really looking forward to chapters 2 through 4. Who knew that leaving your boat to drift into a marina could end up paving the way to such adventures and opportunity!
When i was a kid around i used to go thru my Dads boating magazines and clip ads, send away to boat companies and ask for free brochures of their new boats etc, i had a big pile of them, my dad and his friends would always look at them ,this was in mid 1960s
I discovered your channel through the pirate episode, and was intrigued enough to binge watch from the beginning. I was inspired, then quite frankly obsessed with the idea of live aboard cruising, but had no experience sailing. You showed me hope and possibly. I knew that if you can do it, so can I. I joined a sailing club here in Hawaii, and have been day sailing weekly for almost a year. I am subscribed to a good number of sailing channels, but yours is still my favorite. You are both excellent storytellers, the emotions, the highs and lows, and expert editing, are all reasons I keep watching. I’ve watched you grow into a wonderful little family. Thank you so much for sharing your story with the world. I look forward to your episodes every week.
Thanks man, you're awesome!
I'm following you since the times you were looking for the first Atticus. You have walked a long path, congratulations..😊
Beautiful. I lost track of you guys for a couple years and I’m just getting caught up. Looking forward to the next three installments. Your persistence and tenacity are inspiring. And, honestly, I cannot think of a better way to spend your 20s than three years rebuilding a boat as you build your dream.
Very nice to go through these memories with you. There have certainly been a lot of ups and downs over the years. Started following you during the days of your restoration of Atticus 1.0 and it's been a wild ride.
Thanks for sticking with us!!
Jason - your narrative and LIFE LESSONS is the BEST I've seen. Congrats!!
What an absolutely awesome video! You guys have done a lot and had your highs and lows, but I think what gets you through is the same recipe that has brought most successful people fortune, you fight each battle with attrition, you persevere with dignity regardless of the task and you stay virtuous in life. This is what winning at life looks like, this is what drives the viewership on your channel.
Wow. This really hits home and means so much to us! Thank you!
I agree, they keep it real.
Wow, blew me away this episode. So relatable and so true. I've been watching you both on and off since the start and have to say did not see all this in the background. So relatable. Well done son. Bravo.
So true about terrible moments actually being the start of some of the best experiences or improvements in our lives, well said.
What a blessing to have Desiree with you. Her abilities behind the camera and in the cutting room are simply amazing. But it is the dedication to sailing, adventuring, and researching that makes me enjoy your channel so much. I'm looking forward to the Cliff Notes.
I love the recap! After following y’all for years now, it’s cool to hear your description of past events from the perspective of having achieved so much through all the different adversities.
I got badly beaten up by a gale crossing from the Azores to Portugal, lost the solar, dinghy and the stay sail. Ended up in Povoa de Varzim just above Porto and realised that I didn't have enough money for the repairs . . . so I looked for a job and found one in beautiful down town Porto just as last of my money was just about finished. Now working for four months and trying to save while working on the boat weekends, I will be here for at least a year maybe longer. The gale was an experience not to forget but working in Portugal is also a fantastic opportunity. All experiences help build you as a person. I can relate to your story.
Jordan, if you haven’t already, you should look into getting some voiceover work. You are a great storyteller, speak really well, and have a great voice. Love your videos!
Great episode. Shined a good light on the time of life hailly and I are in now, and I enjoyed your perspective on the highs and lows, thanks for putting everything into perspective in a nice way through your experiences. I’ve watched yall off and on through the years as I chased my dream of sailing, and YouTubing. 14k subs, experience, tickets and certifications, tens of thousands of miles under my keel and lovely community around me, in person and online, it feels wonderful. Thanks for being an inspiration then and now. You’re far from the dreamer you were in those early clips, you seem like you have a great head on your shoulders. Cheers to you both and your adorable fam!
Thank you!
Great idea to make a recap. I discovered your Vlog a month agoe - now I can see the complete story without going back a decade of videos. The quality of your footage is really good. Best thanks from Vienna / Austria / Europe
What an exelent episode! And thank you so much for the inspirational remarks: You are so right about the opportunities there is in situations we at first believe are bad. I am at a "low" right now and working hard to change my life around. So your optimism and "push" is greatly appreciated. And btw: where can I find me a Desiree? 🙂
Hang in there!
Better than a therapist is journaling. I try to write everyday about my thoughts, my feelings, my observtions and my plans. It has helped tremendously! I feel out of sync when I don't do it for a couple days and literally as soon as I start back up, the anxiety and frustration just melts away. This is your coming of age story...How you became who you are, and what you are passionate about. Great video and thank you for sharing, its not always an easy thing to do.
You need to turn your scripts into a book. I've read a few other books by captains with stories like yours. Add your book to your merch.
On a smaller scale this is my story as well, it's been over a year since I bought my boat which was going to "take a few weeks perhaps a month or two to fix up and get outta here". A year later and every penny we have had we are about to launch her back into the water. A couple of months messing around where she is then a 150 mile trip to her permanent moorings where as I tell my wife constantly, she will become a boat instead of a bottomless money pit that has brought us nothing but tears and heartache thus far.
Thank you for the optimum and truth. So many videos glamorise sailing despite it's hardships.
I have watched you guys from the beginning. I have had a name a change. I cried during this video. Well done!
Story well told! Among the best youtube presentations I've ever seen. Honest, upbeat, heartfelt. Love the roller coaster paradigm.
I have followed you since the very begining but re living your journey is even better.Your insights on life are bang on. I also have tears and I anot sure why I send my very best wishes to you 3.
Oh I love this new series! I didn’t start watching until Marvin was with Pacific Seacraft and met y’all working on your boat! Very cool to see from the beginning in a foot notes kind of way! Y’all definitely learned and worked hard on Atticus I.
I have been following you guys for so many years now, this is a wonderful recap of the adventures and the reasons I watch Project Atticus. I haven't been able to afford to support you guys financially for a while now, hopefully that is resolving soon. I feel like you guys are family I have never met. Thank you for sharing your life with us, the good and bad. Its the honesty of the channel that drew me in. And its the integrity of the channel that keeps me coming back. Warmest regards, Wendell
Sitting here in a working marina on a project boat, that is probably over my head, it's very refreshing and I can definitely relate to your experience. Especially when it comes to the most frustrating question of all "when are you going to be done?!". I hope that like you, one day soon we can cut the lines and sail into the sunset. Thank you for sharing this awesome video.❤
You can do it!
Jordan, I have nothing but respect for your hard work together with Desiree. Learning humility along the way through experiences is one of the most valuable things in life. Cheers!
Been watching since the beginning and have never commented before. I am incredibly impressed with you both and proud FOR you.. Everyone should watch your videos whether a sailor or landlubber. Fair winds forever.
Thank you!!
So nice to see your retrospective view on the start of your journey. Makes me feel much better to know it's not just us that goes through such ups and downs. Hopefully bump into you again in 2024
I've been watching you guys from almost the beginning. I've recently introduced my wife to your channel. We're enjoying together and this recap was a great way to catch her up. Truly wonderful. Looking forward to the rest. Thanks for what your family gives to us.
How could I not comment on this video - what a recap and so heartfelt. Super fun following along with you guys.
Best episode yet! Well done guys! Definitely was choked up the entire episode. Looking forward to next week!
One of THE best TH-cam sessions I have ever seen. You said it best… You are proud of yourselves and have EVERY right to feel that way. Your young daughter is VERY lucky. She has some amazing parents. These four sessions are NOT to be missed!!!!
My husband, Jeff and I have been following you guys for years. This week's episode, in my opinion, is the best one so far. Loved, the series, the story and the reflection on all the experiences you had good and bad. Well done.
Hey Buds, not all plain sailing, but where would the fun be in that. Looking back, a legacy in its own right, you all have created more than a TH-cam channel. Thanks for sharing and involving us in your life, 14:45 still brings a tear to the eye.
I can’t believe how much yo babies have grown over the years. I’ve watched you since the beginning and love this walk down memory lane. Thanks for sharing the incredible journey you’ve taken on.
I’ve been a patreon supporter for some time. I think I started watching your channel when you were in isla mujeres, my favorite place in Mexico. and have watched all your videos over the many years. Loved them all but especially loved this one. Thank you again for sharing your life with us.
Thank you for your support!!!
I honestly have "0" interest in boat sailing and such life. But the honesty and crisp clear explanation of your adventure hooked me up to this video from your Turkey experience. You guys have a great personality. Keep it up and keep enjyoing travelling the World. I just do it by driving and flying. You guys just picked a different style of doing it! I really hope that your experience in Turkey excels rest of the World :)
Ahhhh the much wiser jordan and des. Watched you guys from the beginning. And its been a blast.
What a beautiful story. You should become a motivational speaker. Truly inspiring
So good seeing some of the snapshots again and what you have both achieved such a momentous time but has made you both who you are today
Been following the channel almost since the beginning. Great idea to do this recap! Enjoying reliving your adventures and seeing the changes in both of you and all that you’ve learned and experienced. 👍
I joined your channel late so this recap is great. Your story of foolish/exuberant/naive to weathered/jaded/wiser is one almost all boaters can empathize with to an extent. I'm so glad new boaters get a chance to educate themselves through videos like yours.
We love BetterHelp! Thank you so much for this introduction at 10% off.
Subbed, because of your humility. You both earned this! Much respect.
What a wonderful Saturday morning surprise !! As someone who has watched almost every episode in your series, I loved seeing you both in this great review of the beginning. You two are like extended family to so many viewers. Can't wait for the next three episodes
Great video! Thank you so much for opening your lives to this TH-cam family. Watching, laughing and learning has been a pleasure. Can’t wait till next week..and the next.. and the next..
Thank You! thank You! I have had the pleasure of watching you two and now three almost from the beginning . I am now 92 years old, (Still up and mobile) . Your life and travels (and daughter) helps me keep young again. I am blessed and reside here in Yuma, AZ with my daughter.
LOVE YOU ALL!
🤭 thanks for watching!! Awesome to hear you're up and about! Way to go!!
WHOA! I watch dozens of sailing channels. I went back to the beginning of your channel and watched them, in order, until I watched them all. No one has better sailing skills. No one has better boat build and refit skills. No one has better videography skills. No one has better relationship/family skills. (I’m sure you don’t air dirty laundry on camera, but as a minister, teacher, counselor, and home builder, I think I am perceptive.) You DO stress out easily, but you’re aware and working on it. I think this retrospective will be good for you. You are growing. Your confidence will continue to grow too. I’ve wanted to write these things to you, for months. I look forward to each episode and all your future adventures. Be safe, but enjoy the adventure. ~ Doc
Wow! Very inspiring and honest. Great job. Award winning in my opinion.
I found your channel during the pandemic and I've been watching ever since. It was great to see how you got there!
I've been watching every single episode, every week since Belize! Awesome to revisit these memories, love the series!
Thanks for sticking with us!
@@ProjectAtticus Absolutely! It's been amazing to see you grow together and now as a family! Appreciate all the work you do to share your story!
I love your story! I was not one of your first subscribers so seeing your story from the beginning was very moving!
Great recap, I've been watching you guys from the very beginning! Can't believe it's been 10 years!
4:15 My wife and I did a complete rebuild of a Columbia 29 in Seward Alaska back in 1985. We spent a whole summer on it. My wife almost divorced me over it.. 🙂 We spent the next 15 years sailing the coast of Alaska with that boat for months at a time. We sailed from Homer in Kachemak bay to Valdez, Cordova and Whittier in Prince William sound. Our daughter was 3 months old when we took her sailing for 2 months in Prince William sound. Those were great times. Enjoy this time with your family, life is a short trip. Great retrospective. Thanks for the video.
wow Jordan. Your narration skills have got so good!
That was such a fun trip down memory lane. I just realised how much of your journey I've been with you for, having started watching your channel with the original refit. I've loved watching you guys grow both the channel but more importantly as people and I'm so proud of how far you've come.
This was absolutely wonderful to watch. I cannot wait to see part two. You two rock......oh, so does the baby. Stay safe.
So proud of what you all have accomplished over the years!
My favorite video you guys have shared is when you stayed in that small house in Cuba and rode bikes and rolled cigars. What a dream! 2nd favorite was watching the sunrise in the Azores.
Soooo good. I have watched every episode from the beginning. Recapping it really helped me personally remember to keep a long perspective. The fails that seem dream ending will pass ... well done you lot!
Excellent work, Jordan. Thank you for distilling and sharing the wisdom you’ve gained that applies to everyone here no matter what their journey looks like.
Coming up the a summary of your travels together with **the thinking behind* it was such a good idea, thank you!
Recap, great concept. And what a great story. Congratulations for your perseverance, for your adventurous life so far, for your love for each other. You can see it in every single episode. Keep going, enjoy life!
I love the recap you guys were a huge inspiration my wife and I 3 kiddos moved on to a sailboat but when times got rough we moved off after a year of living on it Still one of the best decisions my wife and I have ever done with our family God speed
Guys! This episode is amazing. Watched you from the beginning. Love the recap!!!
This is the first time I watched one of your videos.
Great video! Honest and well narrated.
Brings back so many memories. My wife and I have lived all your experiences from boat yard to Cuba and beyond.
Finding a woman that will live in a boat yard for three years is the very best filter for a wife! She is the real treasure.
You have talent. Keep it up!
I subscribed.
Thanks so much for sharing your story. I really appreciate your perspective on life’s low points being a doorway to new opportunities! Never give up on your self or your life no matter how low it gets. Take it from a 74 year old guy that has learned that exact lesson in many up’s and downs. I look forward to following your adventures and I really enjoy watching Isa grow up!😊
I deal with depression and anxiety and have dreamt about doing the things you guys have done. It is too late for me, but I appreciate your videos and sharing your journey with all of us. I love and respect the four of you. Safe travels.
Absolutely the best you've done. Quite the story telling, I was glued to every word!
Two fresh faced kids who did the hard yards early doors..for those of us who’ve watched you guys from your first post..you’ve definitely come a long way!..those hard times are probably the making of you both..best of all you’ve both remained good human beings throughout the good & hard times..all the best from the land downunder 🇦🇺
I loved this video. As liveaboard sailors we totally understand your journey. But I especially love your understanding of truly bad moments that just might be a door to something wonderful. ❤
Good to see your beginning journey. The up and downs of cruising.
I see you have been blessed to have your partner Desiree to keep you going on your journey.
Thank you for your videos.
Woot, woot, good on you guys!!! You took it on the chin and grew as individuals. New skills you learned were so needed.
Been watching y’all since the beginning. Y’all really inspired my journey as a sailor. Watching y’all fix up your allied really made it seem possilbe for me. So stoked for y’all.
You guys are so blessed. during my 73 years on this earth, I know blessings when I see them.
